About Surf Maui Now

Surf Maui Now was created to share the joy of surfing in a safe, supportive, and personalized way. We focus on providing high-quality surf lessons in Maui for beginners and intermediate surfers who want to learn properly while having fun in the ocean.

Our goal is simple: help you feel comfortable in the water, understand the ocean, and experience the excitement of riding your first waves — or improving the skills you already have.

We keep lessons small and tailored to each guest so everyone receives individual attention and coaching throughout the session.

We offer private, duo, and small group surf lessons designed to match your experience level and comfort in the ocean. Whether this is your first time surfing or you're looking to refine your technique, our instructors adapt each lesson to the conditions and your abilities.

• Lessons are suitable for beginners and intermediate surfers
• Small group sizes for better instruction
• All necessary surf equipment is provided
• Instruction focuses on safety, technique, and confidence

Each surf lesson begins with a brief introduction on the beach where we cover the fundamentals needed to get started safely and successfully.

This includes:
• Ocean safety and awareness
• Surf etiquette
• Board positioning and paddling technique
• How to stand up and ride waves

Once in the water, your instructor will be by your side offering hands-on guidance, wave selection, and encouragement throughout the lesson. Most first-time surfers are able to stand up and ride waves during their session.

Our surf lessons take place at a beginner-friendly beach at Ukumehame (thousand peaks) Maui. Location is selected based on daily ocean conditions to provide the safest and most enjoyable learning environment possible.

• Beautiful location away from the crowds
• Easy beach access
• Consistent waves suitable for learning
• Ideal conditions for beginners and progression

Specific meeting details are provided after booking.
